== Summary ==
+
#REDIRECT [[Feature2:File sharing]]
−
 
 
−
67P comes with a complete, built-in file-sharing solution, optimized for the
 
−
quick sharing of screenshots, screencaps, documents and other files, both on
 
−
public channels as well as in private company channels.
 
−
 
 
−
67P also offers a history view of recently shared files per channel, so it is
 
−
easy to find something without having to search the chat logs.
 
−
 
 
−
When sharing a file in a channel, the Web client uses a nice [[Feature: Chat#Satellites|satellite]] to render the action and a preview of the file.
 
−
 
 
−
== Technical implementation ==
 
−
 
 
−
File sharing is based on the RemoteStorage protocol. Files are published
 
−
directly from the Web client to the remote storage.
 
−
 
 
−
In public channels, using one's personal remoteStorage, the files are published
 
−
there, while in private channels (pro/paid), files are published to the
 
−
organizations storage.
 
−
 
 
−
Image thumbnails are created directly in the browser by the
 
−
[https://github.com/remotestorage/modules/blob/master/src/shares.js remoteStorage shares] module.
 
−
Long-term the module will be extended for creating e.g. file list for zip files
 
−
and other preview/summary data.

−
=== Notes ===
 
−
 
 
−
* Share file/image icon button next to text input field?
 
−
* Easily share a quick picture from the webcam (can even be animated, e.g. with https://yahoo.github.io/gifshot/)
